A black dart fell from the sky. 

It made not a single sound, nor created a single trail.

This black dart dove on The Holy Albatross's cockpit, suddenly opening fire on the aircraft. Closer, this dart was revealed to be a fighter aircraft, colored pitch black with Germanic markings on its wings. The engines of this aircraft suddenly roared to life as the pilot pulled the aircraft out of the dive, using the energy to get away from the enemy response before climbing quickly back up, high above the clouds. This pilot, who had lingered in silence above the battle, had finally revealed itself. There was no mistaking it now. The silent surprise attack, the slick black fighter jet, and the iron crosses were the universal callsigns of this infamous aircraft and its skilled pilot. 

The Night Witch of Karlsland had arrived. 

"Well now, das ist quite a mess you have on your hands my fellow warriors of the sky. It seems the zealots of the Broken Birds have flown a long way to christen this newly formed band of pilots. Sorry, but I would much rather get us underway than play with these fanatics. I do hope you don't mind me ending this little slap fight a bit early, nein?" Ava said over the radio. Turning to face the enemy, she smiled as she formulated her next attack run, aimed for the escorts this time. "This is Ava Falke, reporting as requested."

-Moments earlier-

"Scheiße! Of all the days for my alarm clock to die.... I'm going to be soo late!" Ava said aloud as she gunned her aircraft over Scotland to the meet up point the message spoke about. It was to be orientation day for the pilots of this newly formed expeditionary force and Ava was already running fairly late. Though she finally was approaching her destination, desperately trying to formulate an excuse for her tardiness. "Maybe I'm not too late. Perhaps they're still in briefing? Maybe the squad leader slept late as well! Ja!.......... Oh who am I kidding, they've probably already left and I was too late to joi-" she was cut off when she immediately spotted an anomaly in the distance. It something she was all to familiar with...

"Was!? Flak bursts!? Are they under attack already? Hmmm....." she quickly swung around the airspace and flew into some cloud cover. Flipping upside down, she expertly flew upside down, slowly lowering her plane, practically peaking just her cockpit out of the clouds to see what was going on below. "One hunter.... various smaller escorts... What the hell are Broken Angels doing in Scotland? Whatever.... it seems my fellow airmen are in quite the fur ball. Speaking of which, what a diverse selection of aircraft! Can't wait to get up close and personal with each of those lovely designs! Even a Stratofortress!" Ava nearly squealed in delight watching the giant engage the enemy with its 20mm gatling guns. "What majestic beauty! Ahh... well, its no good if all these fine looking aircraft get shot up.... I guess I should reveal my presence now!" Ava thought with a grin. Suddenly, she cut off her aircraft engines, and for a brief moment, closed her eyes. Her aircraft began to dive silently down upon the preoccupied hunter.

It was in these silent dives Ava felt the most at peace. One with the sky and her aircraft. She opened her eyes just as the enemy was within range of the guns. Ava let loose her 30mm cannons, then dove past the aircraft. As she gracefully pulled up, she reactivated her engines and used the energy she gained from the dive to climb back up.
